You never really know someone until you live with them!

You never really know someone until you live with them. I remember hearing this time and time again from people who were having problems with the people they were living with. I also witnessed this same idea on television shows such as, Judge Mathis, where former roommates were suing one another because someone did not come up with the rent money. I finally experienced the troubles you could have with a roommate when I moved on campus at the beginning of the school year last August. I moved into a four-bedroom dorm with two of my best friends and one girl that my best friends and I went to high school with. Many people warned us about rooming with this particular person but we figured everything would be okay. Little did we know that she would stir up major trouble in our dorm. She would complain constantly about people leaving their shoes in the living room, about everyone being too noisy, and just about almost everything. It has gotten to the point where she is extremely disrespectful and inconsiderate of people’s belongings. Instead of asking someone politely to move their jacket off of the couch, she just throws it on the floor along with other items that do not belong to her as if it were trash. My two best friends and I no longer speak to her. We wish we would have listened to everyone that warned us about rooming with her. Now I know what people mean when they say you really don’t know someone until you live with them!
